The Past Week

Wonderful school has started up again. I actually looked forward to the new semester because it means that I won't have to work a second job in the daytime anymore. Definitely a plus, as I did it for a few weeks during winter break and it absolutely was a bad idea. I mean, the money was somewhat nice but not enough to keep me wanting to do it for any length of time.

I've only got three classes this semester, mostly in part because I still have to work one job nearly full time in order to afford it. I pay for my own classes and my books, which can get pretty costly. Of my three classes, I luckily only needed two books but it was still $207.

At any rate, school is sure to keep me relatively busy, I've got an online course for Intro to Theater, Calculus, and Economics. I think this is the last semester I won't have to take any science courses, from now til the time I'm done with my gen eds I have sections of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics left.

After that, though, I'll be able to take my PCAT and start applying to Pharmacy schools. I can't wait for that.

On top of this, I'm trying to get to a few horse shows this year as well. I show AQHA, which is the association for Quarter horses, competitively, whether it be locally or nationally. I don't bring it up much because it's often hard to explain what exactly I do, and usually unless anyone's into the horse thing themselves. But I do have my own horse and she's pretty much a big part of my life at the moment. It keeps me grounded because it's something I have to work for as far as the showing stuff goes. She's like my rock, it's like having something or somebody to go to when you're stressed.

I digress.

The whole point of this post was to sort of describe why I haven't posted in the past week. Unfortunately, being busy with school and work apparently must take precedence when it comes to this blog. I am so not sure if I spelled "precedence" right. I hope so. But hey, if I disappear every so often, at least whomever reads this won't be TOO concerned!
